I like the idea that, at least Jade Gully, was possibly played just like one of the 2D Sonics, but that pathways were layered in 3D. So instead of like, Sonic 3D Blast, where you can go in all directions at any time, you're still playing 2D Sonic game but you can move between the foreground and background in 3D space.

What system requirements must you have to open this? I have an old Windows 98 laptop that I could use... Anyway. This looks absolutely amazing. If someone could actually use this to make a playable game- at least with jade gully, then I would love to play it. In the meantime, would someone maybe post a video showing much of the levels viewable witin the editor? At least here and not on youtube? I would love to see it.

So I assume that the assholes hiding the no-doubt amazing story behind this are actually going to open up and tell us where this is all from, when it came about and all that, after they're done lording over us that they've had this all this time, right?

If you're honestly calling Chris Senn an asshole, then you're an asshole. If you're talking about who leaked this, it was an anonymous source that didn't want to be tracked; whoever it was used a throwaway email account that can't actually be linked to anyone, so I severely doubt we'll be getting a story. Any other information regarding this material would likely come from Senn or Ofer Alon, but I somewhat doubt either of them will be happy to see this out; if they were totally open to the idea, I'm sure they would have released it themselves.

Please don't adopt the selfish idea that we actually deserve to see this material—it makes you look like a selfish douche with little regard for other peoples' personal work. Nobody is under any obligation to share this, and the fact that it's got out at all should be a cause for appreciation. I think people take our resources for granted... this doesn't happen all the time, and it certainly isn't easy to achieve. Show some respect.

That said, I think the lack of reaction is due to a lack of presentation of what this stuff actually is. It's pretty damn cool to see the original level maps and all of the game material that we hadn't seen before!

So, there we go, we get the story behind it, even though there isn't much of one. That's all I wanted, and it would be stupid to think I was trying to call Chris Senn an asshole, but rather I was referring to those that were leaving details like you just mentioned out.
